Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un mécanisme d'actionnement d'un frein de stationnement dans lequel un premier levier (11) agit sur une première âme de segment de frein (13) et un second levier (15) relié par pivot au premier levier (11) agit sur une seconde âme de segment de frein (17). Le premier levier (11) comporte une protubérance (31') d'aboutement avec un câble d'actionnement contre laquelle un raccord (28) de câble d'actionnement situé à l'extrémité libre d'un câble (25) est amené de manière à déplacer le premier levier dans le but d'accroître la longueur efficace du mécanisme et déplacer ainsi les segments de frein associés. Le premier levier (11) possède une forme creuse définissant un passage guide (29) qui dirige l'extrémité libre du câble depuis une ouverture (24) ménagée dans la plaque arrière (23) du frein associé vers un emplacement adjacent à la protubérance d'aboutement (31') de manière que le raccord (28) puisse entrer en prise avec la protubérance (31'). Une partie (11') du premier levier située à l'extérieur du passage guide (29) peut guider le câble depuis l'extrémité du passage vers la protubérance d'aboutement (31'). Le second levier peut également être façonné (32) de manière à faciliter la mise en prise du raccord fileté (28) avec la protubérance d'aboutement (31') lorsque ledit raccord fait saillie au niveau de l'extrémité du passage (29).

Title: Method and device for dispatching flat products
Inventor: KELLER ALEX
IPC: B65H3/28
Filed: 2000-09-29
Abstract: A method and device for transporting flat, flexible products away from a stack of the products. The leading edge of each individual product is bent away downward from the underside of the stack of products by means of a suction element. The individual product is then transported away by means of a gripper that grips the leading edge region. The direction of movement of the gripper in the region of the underside of the stack of products runs substantially from the leading edge region to the trailing edge region of the products in the stack of products.

Abstract: The invention relates to an occupant-protection system for a motor vehicle comprising an airbag unit (16), a trip circuit (40) for deploying the airbag, a control unit (14) for activating the trip circuit and a lockable latching mechanism for fixing a child's seat. Said system comprises a switch which is in an open position whilst the latching mechanism is locked and a resistance (30, 32). The switch and the resistance lie parallel in relation to one another in the trip circuit (40) which interacts with the control unit in such a way that the airbag cannot be deployed when the switch is in the open position, as a result of the ensuing greater electrical resistance of the trip circuit (40). By measuring the electrical resistance of the trip circuit (40) it is possible to determine whether the child's seat has been correctly fixed into the latching mechanism.

Abstract: An ultrasonic sensor (19) is located in the bottom of a
lift cylinder (5) of a forklift and emits ultrasonic waves
toward a piston (11) in the cylinder (5). A controller (34)
controls the ultrasonic sensor (19) to consecutively emit
ultrasonic waves that have different amplitudes at
predetermined intervals. The ultrasonic waves are emitted in
order of smallness of amplitude. The controller (34) computes
the distance between the ultrasonic sensor (19) and the piston
(11) based on a period from when the ultrasonic sensor (19)
emits one of the ultrasonic waves to when the ultrasonic
sensor (19) receives the ultrasonic wave that is reflected by
the piston (11). As a result, the range of the detectable
distances is extended.

Abstract: A ridgy resin film made of a resin is formed. On a
flat substrate (51), a first concave (57a) and a second concave (57b) are
formed such as to be spaced a given distance apart from
each other. Then, a resin liquid (70) is supplied onto a land
being part of the substrate exposed between the first and
second concaves (57a,57b). Due to its surface tension, the resin
liquid supplied onto the land bulges, and a ridgy resin
film even in width is formed by curing the resin liquid in
this state. Along the edges of the openings of the first
concave (57a) and the second concave (57b), ridges (58a,58b) are formed. Since
the resin liquid is supplied onto the land between the
ridges, it does not drip nor overflow.

buried electrodes of high silver and low palladium content which in turn
lead to higher capacitor Q and lower manufacturing costs.

Abstract: A power saving method and device capable of dynamically
select an appropriate power saving mode according to operation
states of a computer system. When a power saving system task 15
detects that an execution queue 132 does not contain any
executable user task and the computer system has entered an idle
state, a power saving transition check module 154 checks if an
event queue 131 contains a timer-expiration-waiting event.
Depending upon whether or not the timer-expiration-waiting event
is present, the computer system moves from a normal operation
mode to a first or a second power saving operation mode, each
power saving operation mode having its own power saving effect.
A power saving mode release module 231 of an interrupt handler
23 returns the system from the first or second power saving
operation mode to the normal operation mode in response to an
occurrence of an interrupt. For example, in the first power
saving operation mode, the CPU operation clock is stopped. In
the second power saving operation mode, the CPU operation clock
is stopped and, at the same time, a timer interrupt operation is
disabled.
